Got old oil or chemicals sitting in your shed? Not sure what to do with them? We can help.
Sign up for our free hazardous waste drop-off day in Pookeno on Saturday, 7 March 2026, and clear out your shed safely.
This event helps keep people safe, protects our environment, stops illegal dumping, and makes sure waste is handled the right way. Some items can even be recycled.
Thanks to funding from the Ministry for the Environment, our Waste Minimisation Fund can support waste reduction projects across the district.
More drop-off events coming soon
Our district is large, so not every drop-off spot will suit everyone. Please be patient - we’re working hard to bring these events to all parts of the district.
